I will be getting to these in a bit, but time is being taken up with other things at the moment. You can notice the difference on the R35 between this one and the older one. Musings to follow. #july #diecast order from #japan via #japanbooster. will be #musing about them shortly via keefydblog.wordpress.com #jdm…

The Honda N-Box is a kei car produced by Honda for the Japanese market. Together with the Honda N-One, it is part of a renewed lineup of Kei class city cars. The use of the letter “N” in the name was previously used by Honda for the late 1960s and 1970s Honda N360. Gotta love these boxy JDM’s. They typify the quirkyness of…

Continuing the series of racing transporters from TRU Singapore. Not that I am going to sell them at any real stage, but they can command a fair price on ebay. Again, nothing very special apart from the livery, but as I have mentioned before, unique casting means it makes an entry to the Garage.

It gives me huge pleasure when the latest Tomica TLV casting is not a bloody Nissan Cedric. This model is an instant hit. I cannot remember the last time a Honda Prelude was made as a casting although one could say that Corgi produced a beauty in the early 1980s. The reason that this casting…

Tomytec have released some short videos showcasing the October 2017 releases. Details can be found also on tlvneo.wordpress.com – a website I am currently developing as well. Just mute the rather annoying music………..

So we are getting to see the final few models that are going to make up the TLV Neo range for 2017. October sees the some very familiar castings in a different guise. The Cresta is a well worn path as is now the R35 GT-R casting, and the CR-X takes on the Ballade version.…

I never thought about this long and hard, but the standard wheels on these Tomica models reminds me of the wheels some Lesney models used to wear – MB62 Renault 17TL is a good example: And madly enough this Tomica exclusive by TRU Asia just has that manner of resemblance to it. Again, I paid…

Just in from Japan – April’s very late order from Japan Booster. A mix of old and new – as I had mentioned before in a previous musing, I am actually running out of castings I want to add. So I may well turn to 1/43 for a short period. Now just waiting for Tomica…

Years ago, the Mrs had a chance to get a S2000 as a company car. She ended up with a Golf instead – more practical. It would have been a terrific car to have for a short period of time, but methinks it would have been very high maintenance. But what an engine! This is…

I really used to like the Honda N360, mainly because I just didn’t get it as a car. The modern interpretation is the N-One and re-created here by Tomica. Nice model, but it is a shame that the rear lights are not given any treatment. At least it gets an opening boot (which is something…
